Access Point Names

Your wireless service provider assigns an APN (Access Point Name), but you may have to ask for it. An access point

is an IP network to which a MultiModem rCell Router connects. The Web Management software asks for the APN

on the Wizard Setup screen and the PPP screen.

Provider Fees

Your provider charges you for data usage. Check with your provider for rates and limitations. If you plan to use the

router for large amounts of data transfers, Multi-Tech recommends an unlimited data plan with your account.

Multi-Tech is not responsible for any charges relating to your cellular bill.
